Hello my name is Cari, and this is a little bit of my story. I was banded in 2006 in TJ Mexico. My sur weight was 313. In 12 months I was down to 150lbs and thrilled. I only ever had 1 fill about 8 months in. I was estacic. over the next 2 years I maintained my weight at 122lbs. going up or down 5lbs Water weight. I had gotten my life back!!!!! Life could not get any better........ BUT........... it could get worse!!!!!!! I started getting really tired. I could no longer eat. I thought ok some kind of stomach bug, then I started throwing up blood. I went to the ER in so much pain. They did an xray and said everything looked ok and sent me home. The pain got worse and worse. I was in and out of the ER label a drug seeker and then finally ignored. What the Drs could not see on the xray was the face that my band was inside my stomach not on the outside. I found this out after going to the gastro and he did a scope. You could see half my band coming through my stomach tissue. I had to have an emergency removal in 2009. TO this day I can not go to the ER without horrible looks from the DR and nurses because I could never get the title drug seeker cleared from my name. Even after I went with proof that it was something else. Now it is 2013 and I am going to have a sleeve done. I have gained back all my weight after having a baby and ankle surgery I have gained back all my weight. I will be having my sleeve done in Mexico as well. I am going to get sleeved by Dr Q in TJ on my birthday May 3rd.
